Abstract

|
|
In plastic surgical operation upon the nose, it is important to remember tha´ the nose is not a static structure, but a organ of dynamic structure. Therefore prime consideration must be given to the preservation of dynamics of the nasal cartilage.
A detailed knowledge of the anatomy .of these hyaline cartilage structure is ; requisite in surgery of the nose. Nevertheless available reports concerning the nasal anatomy upon it´s cartilaginous structures were investigated only for thCaucasian. The present anatomical investigation was instituted hoping to clarifythe different sizes of nasal cartilages from caucasian to Korean, if there is any.
Gross dissection of the lateral and alar cartilages have been performed on 30 adult Korean cadavers.
The results were;
Length of right lateral cartilages. 21.4 +3.46mm.
Length of left lateral cartilages. 20.7 +2.31mm.
Width of right lateral cartilages. 10.35±1.81mm.
Width of left lateral cartilages. 10.15=1.51 mm.
Length of right lateral crus. 19.8 =1.71mm.
Length of left lateral crus. 20.03_2.44mm.
Width of right lateral crus. 9.5 +1.24mm.
Width of left lateral crus. 10.03+1.7mm.
Height of right medial crus 15.9 +1.31mm.
Height of left medial crus. 16.1 ±1.llmm.
